damn... even before black friday hit, i was in the red... i got 2 new rigs... desktop and notebook from dell (auntie dell -- stupid joe) early this week -- here are the specs (i had a ton of help from geoff -- no wonder he was a back-end manager at compusa):
desktop
laptop
yea -- great deal from ben [ link ]... too good to let go
oh yea... and i guess i gotta give huge thanks to mr. mclovin' -- greg. i wasn't gettin' any big screen tv's or anything -- just flash drives, laptop cooler pad, am/fm radio (long story short, it's for work during padres season) -- and he hooked it up. i owe him a few beers and a reacharound i guess... nice work on gettin' the ticket for the monitor at staples too -- xine owes you a beer too.. haha
there are some sik movies comin' out soon -- i am legend and the jj abrams one: cloverfield -- they have a real trailer up now and it looks nuts... [ check it out ]
then there's this random video -- i dunno if it's a real interview, but it's pretty funny. it kinda has the rhythm of a "who's on first" routine... just remember that the front's not supposed to fall off a tanker. [ video ]
missing baseball season? yea... none of you are... but check out this funny comedian's podcast.
but i don't wanna listen to it!
ok... well you're missing out on some funny stuff... i like how you hear the sounds of the ballpark throughout his commentary -- nice detail [ pete hansen ]
they stink... afc west stinks... what the hell is wrong? it's pretty much the same team from last year -- i think the only consistent ones are kaeding and scifres (btw.. a scifres jersey would be sick -- haha)
they were saying that the charger players were blaming themselves, but it all comes back to the man in charge:

norv turner, head coach
"Norv Turner: signed 4-year deal reportedly worth more than $3M annually thru 2010-2011 season on 2/19/07" [ source ]
super -- 4 years with this guy... i'm sure marty is lovin' it
anyway.. got some cool news -- sarmad has unveiled his new site, which has one of the sikkest domain names ever purchased by godaddy -- thoracic fax machine
check it out -- the cinnabon one was featured on digg, but i took a look at the other ones and they are also funny!
the cinnabon
the copier
haha... i like the two stills of the above videos... it makes you say, "what the eff, mate?"
finally -- the north light studios web site is done and live! [ link ] -- it took a while, but i'm finally glad to link it to my site (and eventually, the gorirra portfolio page)
to date, this is my best site -- i used a lot of new elements with this site and as always, it's simple, clean, and easy to use.
next in the queue -- la coupe -- sarmad's parent's business downtown [ link ]. that's the site that sarmad threw together so that they have at least some kind of web presence. this should be a fun site to make also: from taking photos at the salon to the overall design.
after that -- i think eric wants a piece of gorirra... i think we should trademark that.. "would you like a piece of gorirra?" (actually... maybe not...)
so 24's gonna be stalled for a while cuz of the strike -- this can tie you over tho... what if jack bauer had to use AOL 3.0 [ video ]
gotta love the prodigy reference -- haha... i remember ian having prodigy and being the cool kid on the block... damn how much we've evolved
check it out -- do you smell that? no, it's not thanksgiving... it's BLACK FRIDAY... i'm already planning to camp out at best buy with geoff, greg, and possibly rob... the ad isn't out yet for best buy, but target's came out yesterday [ link ]
notables --
can't wait --
